Introduction

[DirtyAce]

Hi there everyone.


My name's Jon and I, along with each and every one of you, absolutely love playing poker.

I started playing poker around a year and a half ago after seeing a BoDog Tv ad while I was watching a live stream of a UFC event hehe, I thought I will check this out !

As some time passed I started to take the game more seriously and started playing for real money, I previously just played play rooms on PokerRoom.

After a little bit of progression I felt it was time to find a live game and I did so in a local bar who held one every tuesday.

At my very first appearence in this live game I astonishingly made the final table, I didnt even know what position was at this point, only to be busted out by WeeTomatoes.

Shortly thereafter I began taking it so seriously that I invested a great deal of time and money in several books, of which I owe a lot to, including but not limited to; Harrington on Holdem, Some sklansky material and Supersystem.

The above publications allowed me to really progress as a poker player, understanding certain important situations that I never knew existed.

I started cashing in the live game regularly and have now won it 4 times. That alongside really good performances online have really cemented my belief that I can and will be a great poker player.

At this moment in time I not only play No Limit Holdem, but also really enjoy Pot Limit Omaha and 7 Card Stud but mostly I like to play a lot of NLHE cash tables on William Hill, and regularly play tournaments on the iPoker network and PokerStars.

Im pretty sure I registered here several months back but Im assuming my username was closed due to inactivity as I couldnt seem to login, but I just registered again, hope that's cool.

Im very much looking forward to the BB3 where Myself, TheFuture and both Tomatos hope to stir things up a little and have a great, great time with you all.

Hi Jon. Welcome to blonde.

I share your interest in UFC as well as poker. keep your eye out for the various boxing / fighting threads in the sports / betting section of the board. it comes up now and again.

Mike Bisbing v Chuck Lidell before the end of 2007. fancy that?

[DirtyAce]

Hi Adam,

         Well it's not as far fetched as it sounds for 2 reasons; Bisping will need a year+ to get to a really competitive level and Chuck will have fallen from the top by then, Wandy Silva will kill him.

Bisping may perhaps meet him while climbing the ladder, while Chuck is coming down the ladder . .

[AdamM]

I think more like this

Chuck beats Silva (what a tear up that'll be) after seeing off babaloo next month (if he can stay on his feet).

there is somesort of qualifier (UFC 63 maybe) between Michael Bisbing and Forest Griffin, the winner of which takes on Chuck for the title (UFC 65).

I genuinely think Bisbing has what it takes to dominate the light heavyweight division.

I'm into UFC as well, we should try our hands at lines in the betting forums

[DirtyAce]

I think Bisping has what it takes aswell mate, without a shadow of a doubt ..  flying the british flag.

Shame about Lee Murray though . . what a waste of a talent.

[AdamM]

indeed.

so tell us about yourself

I got half way through that sentence and thought it was going to be a suggestion of a sparring session at the Blonde bash

actually, BB4, where ever that ends up being, (possibly DTD ;-) ) we could find a gym and put on a Blonde charity boxing / kickboxing session
